Safety Precautions
Electric Shock Warning
This equipment may cause electric shocks if not handled properly.
 Access to this equipment should only be granted to trained operators
and maintenance personnel who have been instructed of and fully
understand the possible hazardous conditions and the consequences of
accessing non-field-serviceable units such as the power supplies.
 The system must be unplugged before moving or in the even that it
becomes damaged.
Reliable Grounding
Particular attention should be given to prepare reliable grounding for the
power supply connection. It is suggested to use a direct connection to the
branch circuit. Check for proper grounding before powering on the device.
Overloading Protection
The device should be installed according to specifications. Provide a suitable
power source with electrical overload protection. Do not overload the AC
supply branch circuit that provides power to the device.
ESD Precautions
Please observe all conventional anti-ESD methods while handling the device.
The use of a grounded wrist strap and an anti-static work pad are
recommended. Avoid dust and debris in your work area.
Device Site Recommendations
The device should be installed according to specifications. This device should
be operated at a site that is:
 Clean dry and free of excessive airborne particles.
 Well-ventilated and away from heat sources such as direct sunlight
and radiators.
 Clear of vibration or physical shock.
 Away from strong electromagnetic fields produced by other devices.
 Available with properly grounded wall outlet for power. In regions
where power sources are unstable apply surge suppression.
 Available with sufficient space behind the device for cabling.

Chapter 1. Product Overview
1.1. Network Camera Introduction
CAM6xxx series are professional network cameras that use Internet Protocol (IP) to
transmit video streams and control signals over networks. Capable of operating
over both LANs and WANs they provide a complete budget-conscious remote
surveillance solution that are ultra clear and highly integrated. CAM6xxx series
combine a user-friendly interface and simplified installation with a powerful
feature set to provide users an easy upgrade path to new digital surveillance
system in a virtual environment. These highlights make CAM6xxx series ideal
choices for environments that require remote surveillance or video transmission.
1.2. Features and Benefits
Surveon 6xxx series IP camera is a cutting-edge digital video transmission device.
It can compress and transmit real-time images of outstanding quality using a
reasonable amount of bandwidth through a standard TCP/IP network. The
following features make this IP camera an outstanding choice when building an
intelligent IP surveillance system:
 High Video Quality
High image quality is essential in security surveillance applications. It is
important to be able to clearly capture an incident in progress and
identify persons or objects involved. A Surveon network camera gives
exceptional video quality even greater than that of traditional analog
cameras which means that more detail or larger areas can be covered.
 H.264/MPEG-4/MJPEG Compression
Motion JPEG MPEG-4 and H.264 (also known as MPEG-4 Part 10/AVC)
each employ different techniques to reduce the amount of data
transferred and stored in a network video system. Network cameras that
support multiple compression standards are ideal for maximum flexibility
and integration possibilities.

17
 Dual Streaming
Dual-stream design enables simultaneous support of real-time video
monitoring video recording or mobile viewing applications which require
different resolutions compression formats and frame rates.
 MicroSD Card Slot (CAM6351 only)
IP surveillance relies on network connectivity making it susceptible to
attacks on the network between the camera and recording facilities. With
onboard recording capability our network cameras can truly be online
24/7. The microSD card slot design ensures sufficient recording capacity
for an over-weekend period even at full frame rate and high resolution.
 Tampering Detection
This is an intelligent video analytics application available only in selected
network cameras in the market. When a camera is manipulated in any way
(e.g. accidental redirection blocking defocusing spray-painted covered
or damaged) it can automatically trigger recording and alert notifications.
 Power-over-Ethernet
The built-in Power-over-Ethernet support reduces cabling and installation
costs and enables users to consolidate power facilities for higher
reliability. With PoE a camera can still operate in the event of a power
failure if it is connected to a centralized backup power with an
Uninterruptible Power Supply.
